    Contributed by Rodney Fry on Mar 6, 2022
     | 2,064 views

    God sent His Son into the world to save the world, but this does not mean that everyone is automatically saved. In fact, some are condemned and doomed. Jesus reveals man’s condemnation.

    John Series PART 15 Revelation 6: Man’s Condemnation, 3:18–21 (3:18–21) Introduction: God sent His Son into the world to save the world, but this does not mean that everyone is automatically saved. In fact, some are condemned and doomed. Jesus reveals man’s condemnation. 1. Who ...read more

    In a previous sermon, Peter spoke to us about "Our relationship to each other."

    He made it clear that these things in the remaining part of the chapter apply to "ALL". He admonished them in verse 8, to: (1) "All" be of one mind (2) "All" have compassion (3) "All" to love as brethren (4) "All" be tenderhearted and humble in ...read more

    Gifts Of The Spirit In The Church: And Diagnostics Of The Lost

    I can't help but notice certain patterns in the people and groups around me. Of course people are more complex than stereotypes, but there are certain observable patterns that do emerge, and tend to be at least somewhat accurate in describing people groups.

    The Truth About Power Series

    Jesus doesn’t tell Zacchaeus, “I’ll stand in your doorway, but I will not come inside.” Jesus doesn’t tell Zacchaeus, “I’ll look in your window, but I will not come inside.” No, Jesus says instead, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” (Luke 19:5b)

    We are in a short series of sermons entitled The Truth about You. And we conclude this series with a very famous story, the story of Jesus and Zacchaeus. This is the last of Jesus’ personal encounters (in Luke’s gospel) before He arrives in Jerusalem to be tried, crucified, and eventually ...read more

    The bell sounds. You can’t stay huddled in the corner. The fight is on and it is going to be a slugfest!

    Slugfest Pt. 5 - Answer The Bell I. Introduction Fix the fight, find your fight song, remember that you have a cut man. We are a body of left-handed warriors - we don't fit in, we are awkward on purpose by God to win unexpected and unlikely victories that will cause others to rally who ...read more

    What Difference Does The Resurrection Make? Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 2,812 views

    Pagans expected nothing to happen after a person dies. Jews expected the faithful to be resurrected at the end of time. And Christians have felt that not only has Christ risen from the grave but His resurrection guarantees His follower's resurrection.

    Happy Resurrection Day to Cross Church! Maybe you grew up thinking miracles happened a long time ago, if at all. Over the course of the next few weeks, we’ll introduce you to both ancient miracles and modern ones. But if you’re looking for a miracle, you need not look any further than the empty ...read more

    Christmas: Why Did Jesus Come To Us? Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 3,177 views

    I’m really glad God came up with the idea of Christmas. But what did God have in mind when He created Christmas? What motivated Him to bring Christmas to us?

    Christmas is really enjoyable on so many levels. But a widow names Stella has an unusual experience on Christmas. Stella’s first Christmas as a widow brought incredible loneliness. One day her doorbell rang and she was greeted by a messenger holding a box. “What’s in the box?” she asked. The ...read more

     | 32,108 views

    The mercy of God is needed by all to be successful in life. It can not be earned, but given to men according to the will of God. There are things can position us in the direction of the mercy of God.

    THE WONDERS OF GOD’S MERCY Study Text: Romans 9: 9 - 16 Introduction: - Naturally, the journey of life is too cumbersome and very difficult to predict. Sometimes, certain unwholesome events happen when they are least expected. Most certainly, it is not the strongest of human beings ...read more

    Few, if any of us have experienced revival as the apostle Paul experienced in Ephesus.

    These new converts, that had been raised up worshipping the goddess Diana with all the magic formulas and superstitions, had truly been converted. They revealed this by the fact that they turned from all this false worship and burned the items that had anything to do with it, in a public place ...read more

    Our Differences!

     | 2,098 views

    One of the things that we often talk about is the differences among people.

    For example, we often see: (1) GENDER DIFFERENCES The differences between men and women are noticeable differences. I am not talking about the physical differences, but our behavioral differences. For example: • Men are Vain. Before they go somewhere, they will check themselves out in the ...read more

    The Fear Of The Lord

     | 3,124 views

    Notice the Bible says that Hananiah FEARED GOD ABOVE MANY.

    That is when you take the life of Hananiah and compare it to other men, his life revealed he feared God much more than most men. In this society in which we live, we do not hear very much about the “Fear Of The Lord”. One of the reasons we do not SEE and HEAR much about the fear of the Lord is ...read more

    In this text we see something that often occurs in churches. A man is sleeping in church.

    But it is more than just a man sleeping in this passage of scripture. This man named Eutychus was sitting on a window sill while Paul preached a very lengthy sermon, and he fell out the window and died. • We ministers are indeed thankful for this passage of scripture, because when we see men and ...read more

    The People In The Pews

     | 2,867 views

    Ezekiel is a interesting prophet. We can see from this passage of Scripture that he preached sermons that dealt with people where they lived.

    I am sure that when Ezekiel got through preaching this sermon, there were not many standing at the back door telling him how much they enjoyed the sermon. This is why many will seek for a church where the Word of God is occasionally MENTIONED, but not PREACHED! For example, today it is not ...read more

    In the previous sermon we looked at Romans 8:1-4, and we learned some marvelous things about our new position in Christ Jesus.

    We learned that while we ALL were once IN ADAM, something happened when heard of salvation in Jesus: • We recognized how dreadful our sins were, and repented of them and trusted in Christ • We were immediately justified by the blood of Christ And now we are no longer IN ADAM, but we are IN CHRIST. ...read more
